I believe you left out something, because this can't be solved

is this supposed to be a rectangle

I don't think so

#

just a trapezoid with 2 right angles

#

wait nvm I think I just proved it's a rectangle

maybe there's enough information to find the area of the triangle, though

#

in which case you can assume it's a rectangle
if all triangles have the same area choose the easiest one

#

though that strategy is a bit dependent on the problem being right

Idk I tried doing smth I feel like there's a flaw somewhere

#

Can I draw that dotted line perpendicular to ED and declare that it is parallel to BE

#

that might be the issue

if angles B, E and D are all 90 deg then angle C must be 90 deg

Like an assumption?
